Well you'd said it was cancelled. So yeah. At least no one unethical found it and tried to use it. Here in the US that happens alot since debit cards can be used without PIN numbers at most places. Which is why I only use credit cards (I pay them off each month). I cut up my bank debit cards when they came in the mail.
Yes you can easily freeze and unfreeze your card instantly using the banks app. They can be used contactless up to £100 per transaction so if a thief was fast they could easily do some damage.
Yeah, I typically like to use my credit cards for rewards points and travel miles and I get a lot of perks that way--free gift cards or statement credits, free hotel stays, free flights, etc.Yes you can easily freeze and unfreeze your card instantly using the banks app. They can be used contactless up to £100 per transaction so if a thief was fast they could easily do some damage.
But they’re pretty hot on it, I went shopping about two months ago (I very rarely go shopping) and made a few purchases (probably four) at a mall in fast succession (so I could get out quick!) and the next transaction wouldn’t go through, the shop received a message from the bank to call them to verify the transaction. It was only for a small amount, about £60 but they obviously have algorithms running that detect what is unusual activity for you.
In the UK so long as you promptly report your debit card missing you will be refunded any fraudulent purchases same as with a credit card so there’s not a lot in it.
Here credit cards are slightly more protected but not enough for me to bother with one.
Plus I keep the main household account running fairly lean and transfer everything out into accounts that aren’t used much if at all so I don’t worry too much about it
The algorithms seem to be quite good at picking out unusual patterns and rejecting payments.
I like it! I spend way more time in the car than I do in the stores. I don't really think it's too hard at all and I only take as much work as I want, plus sometimes there's paid travel to nearby states so I get to view pretty scenery out the window on the way.The algorithms seem to be quite good at picking out unusual patterns and rejecting payments.
I don’t think I’d like your job, too much walking
Wow - and I always thought algorithms were some sort of diabolical fitness routine...
Every knows they’re an awful boy band from the 80’s.
Were they math nerds in high school?
Stunning, isn't it? What would you guesstimate the distance was?
SUrely some forum members know.Can anyone remember what temperature and how long I dry out plum tomatoes in my oven?
No, me neither
That’s happens here as well. I can stand in the kitchen, listening to a meeting, pour a tea refill, and the moment I press the button to reheat it a bit in the microwave, it drops the connection.
